the reason for our trip to stockholm was for frantzen, they attempt to fuse nordic ingredients with a japanese approach, but the meal simply didn’t reach my expectations, and everything here was unbearably salty. wine list was also unacceptably expensive, considering the wine lottery in scandi, they’re out for blood lol. very standard service expected of a restaurant of this calibre, didn’t feel like they took an extra step to make our experience better as...

in stockholm, sweden (june’24)

they took us up to the lounge when we arrived, did the whole shenanigans of looking at the ingredient box of the day with the same speech to all diners, then some snacks and bites which were the best items of the whole meal. proceeded to head down to the main dining area, where most of the hot food were served. with dishes featuring a homemade ‘dashi’ which is just really a chicken bouillon, and chawanmushi which was so painfully salty. nothing following was really memorable either apart from the salt, then we were brought back to the lounge for petite fours and their madeleines. maybe i’m a traditionalist where i prefer cakier styles with a perfect ‘bump’, these felt more spongey, doused in brown butter and cardamom sugar. to each their own but at least they’re warm, but even so couldn’t really salvage the meal.

overall a very very unsatisfying and one of the most disappointing meals of the year. don’t really recommend coming here, as its gone too commercialised, too expensive with unnecessarily strong seasoning.

Frantzén - Stockholm

The Stockholm food scene is booming. Capital of Sweden, a country that was previously not particularly known for its food, the city is a true gastronomic hotspot ready to be explored. And at the helm of everything is @restaurantfrantzen, a 3 Michellin starred restaurant that both deserves each and every star and at the same time is much more than any accolade could possibly show. Also where I had one of the best meals of my life.
